Answer:
The most probable result of the increasing concentrations of fertilizers in the prime rivers emptying into oceans is eutrophication followed by hypoxia. This will eventually result in less uptake of carbon dioxide and less release of oxygen.
The fertilizers are among the common pollutants, which degrade the quality of water. The fertilizers comprise chemicals, which are good for plants use, however, the excess amounts used in plants get run off and pollute the water bodies.
The fertilizers mainly comprise nutrients like phosphorus and nitrogen. When it rains, these nutrients get carried to the water bodies and results in algal bloom known as eutrophication. This algal bloom utilizes the oxygen in the water, leaving behind no or fewer levels of oxygen that hampers life of aquatic species.
Another term is "K-selected species"
The first one is the 3rd option and the 2nd one is also the 3rd option
<h2>Species diversity </h2>
Explanation:
In order to assess the species diversity of a community, one would need to know the number of different species present as well as the relative abundance of the different species
- Species diversity is a function of species richness, the number of species in a given locality and species evenness, the degree to which the relative abundances of species are similar
- The composition of species in a given ecosystem is the result of long lasting evolution
- Each species has adapted to its own niche, which is characterized by certain features (e.g. temperature range, availability of food or light) enabling the species to reproduce and thus maintain its population
- The loss of one species affects many other species and causes imbalance
- As a result, several functions within and of the system are not carried out any more
- Any species that will take over the lost specie's niche will most certainly not replace all of the functions it used to perform
Answer:
The answer is has mass and takes up space.
Explanation:
Matter is any substance that has mass and takes up space. However, matter can be present in forms other than solids (liquids are also made of matter) and matter is not always visible to the human eye (gases are made of matter, but many gases cannot be seen with the human eye).
Hope this helps!
